1 P R E S S R E L E A S E FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: February 8, Contact: Steve Mitchell Clinton Leads Sanders by 29% (Clinton 57% - Sanders 28%) EAST LANSING, Michigan --- Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has increased her lead over Senator Bernie Sanders among likely Democratic Party Presidential Primary voters. Clinton leads Sanders 57%-28%, a 29 point lead up from the 17 point lead she had on January 25th.

Hillary Clinton has had a comfortable lead over Bernie Sanders, but it appeared that lead was closing when Martin O Malley was in the race. Now that he has dropped out, Clinton has taken a substantial lead over Sanders in Michigan. Although she was in a neck-in-neck race with Sanders in the Iowa Caucus and she is trailing by double digits in New Hampshire, she still seems to be on track to win the nomination.

However, Sanders is proving more difficult to beat than most would have thought, Steve Mitchell, CEO of Mitchell Research & Communications said. Here are the results by key demographics: By age: Sanders and Clinton are in a dead tie at 43% with year olds. Clinton leads 72%-14% with voters Clinton leads 49%-37% with voters Clinton (62%) leads Sanders (18%) with voters 70 and older.
